4 chicks - boy or girl? (6 weeks old)

[Kentchicks]

Hi,

Below are some pictures of my little 6 week old chooks. 3 of them are light sussex and one was a surprise egg. I had to take several pictures because they didn't sit still when I popped out my camera. To make it less confusing I gave them all a name and this is what I think the genders are:
chick A = boy?
chick B = girl?
chick C = girl?
chick D = boy -> please note this one is a bit the runt of the flock but his comb and wattle seem larger and a bit more red than in chick B

Do you agree?

Thanks for your help!




Picture #1: left (chick A) is boy, right (chick B) is girl?


Picture #2: (chick C): girl? (see also picture 4 and 6)


Picture #3: left (chick D) is boy (see also picture 5)?


Picture #4: left (chick C) is girl (see also picture 2 and 6), right (chick A) is boy?


Picture #5: left (chick D) is boy, right (chick B) is girl?


Picture #6: left (chick C) is girl, right (chick A) is boy?

i don't feel good about chick B, looks pretty rooish to me. otherwise, I would agree with your thinking.

i agree with OP i think chick b is allo pullet

@silverfox you mean roo, or not?

@smarsh why do you think chick B is a roo? Its wattle and comb are much smaller and more pale than of chick A, that's why I thought (and hoped) it's a girl

it would be a real bummer if all my 3 light sussex are boys... they make good table birds but I'd rather wish they were hens

looks like you are correct. i would keep an eye on B as in some pics the angle and lighting make it appear to be a cockerel
